Eid-Ul-Adha, also known as the "Festival of Sacrifice," is one of the most significant celebrations in the Islamic faith. It symbolizes the ultimate devotion and submission to God, memorializing prophet Ibrahim's unwavering obedience to Allah's command. According to the story, Ibrahim faced a test when Allah instructed him to sacrifice his beloved son. Despite the immense difficulty, he prepared to fulfil Allah's wish. However, Allah was impressed by Ibrahim's devotion and provided a lamb for sacrifice instead. Eid-Ul-Adha occurs on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the final month of the Islamic lunar calendar. Muslims worldwide gather for communal prayers held in mosques, fostering spiritual unity. Central to the festival is the tradition of sacrifice, known as "Qurbani," where an animal, often a lamb, camel, or goat, is sacrificed to symbolize Ibrahim's willingness to obey Allah.
